Bacon And Cheddar Quiche


My sister found this on a website but i am not sure which one and made it for my little sister's wedding shower. It was excellent so here i am sharing it. I have listed the ingredients for making the crust too, however i just buy a frozen crust from the store. Enjoy!!!

Steps


Prepare crust for quiche.
In a mixing bowl , mix together flour and salt.
Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender until coarse crumbs form.
Add water , a little at a time , until dough holds together and forms a ball.
Shape into a disk , wrap in plastic wrap , and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin , roll out dough into a circle about 11 inches in diameter.
Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate or quiche pan.
Trim edges , leaving a little overhang , about 1 / 4-inch all around the edge.
Prick dough with a fork.
Line with foil and fill with dried beans or pie weights.
Bake quiche crust for 10 minutes at 375.
In a small bowl , whisk together the eggs , cream , thyme , and pepper.
Pour into the baked crust.
Crumble bacon over the top with the shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes , or until quiche filling is set and lightly browned.
Serve quiche with fresh tomato wedges.
